Aziz Tetteh Completes Move To Dynamo Moscow

Ghanaian soccer star Aziz Tetteh has reportedly completed his move to Russian side Dynamo Moscow. The player got the nod from the authorities to finish the move from Polish football club Lech Poznan.

The deal is believed to be in the region of 2.5 million Euros in total. The deal was finalized after Tetteh passed medicals at the VTB Arena. He is believed to be a special request by Dynamo Moscow manager Dmitry Khokhlov. Khokhlov wants the tough tackling defensive midfielder to join the setup and improve the club football in the middle.

The 27-year old was quite good whilst at Lech Poznan where he featured in well over 80 games. He started his career back in Ghana, his place of birth. He used to feature for Liberty Prof in 2007 but moved to Italy to play for Udinese after being discovered early.

In the Serie A, he had to go out for development as he could not be used immediately. He went on loan to Xerez CD, Granada CF, CD Leganes and Montaneros all in Spain. Eventually he was released for free to AS Fokikos in 2012. He played half a season before he was sold to Platanias from where he moved to Lech Poznan in 2015. In 2016, the player made his debut in the star studded Ghana national team, and it remains his only game so far.
